HC Deb 08 November 1928 vol 222 c207
36. Mr. WELLOCK

asked the Minister of Health if he is in a position to say whether the Government proposes to continue the housing subsidies at the existing rates after 31st March next?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

The matter is engaging my attention, but I am not yet in a position to make a statement.

Mr. WELLOCK

Can the right hon. Gentleman say when he is likely to be able to make a statement, as the local authorities are anxiously awaiting it?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I shall have to have conversations with the local authorities first.
